What is Overview of Modified Ashworth Scale about?
The Modified Ashworth Scale (MAS) is a tool used to assess spasticity in patients with conditions such as cerebral palsy and stroke, measuring muscle resistance to passive movement. It features a 6-point scoring system ranging from 0 (no increase in tone) to 4 (limb rigid in flexion or extension) and is used in various clinical applications including stroke rehabilitation and spinal cord injury management. The MAS is important for patient care, monitoring progress, and making clinical decisions.
